Re: Ubuntu

what type of file is it? .tar.gz .deb or what?


I believe its in the kernel from gusty anyway. what version of Ubuntu are you running?

NDISWrapper listed above is one way but it is better to use it in Native mode if possible.

In case you don't understand, NDISWRAPPER is an emulation layer that allows you to use NDIS complient drivers under Linux (people often make the mistake of saying it uses Windows drivers, thats not an accurate description as windows happens to also use NDIS complient drivers)
